Previous - Next

Do you think they’re awake yet? Sehun practically whines as he, Dylan, Minseok, Baekhyun and Chanyeol all make it back to the house from their morning run. After the night they’ve had, they’ve all had a bunch of pent up energy that they wanted to kill before things got too out of hand this morning.

I’m not sure, Dylan responds, shaking his fur out as they reach the back steps.

If they are I hope they’ve had the decency to take a shower first, Minseok grumbles.

Minseok! Dylan scolds, turning his head to look at the large brown wolf.

What? You’re telling me you’d know exactly how you’ll react when you see her this morning, while she’s covered in his scent? Minseok huffs. Cause I know I don’t.

He’s got a point, Baekhyun mumbles, Chanyeol snorting his agreement.

Well, it’s something we’ll have to get used to, Dylan replies, mentally rolling his eyes at the whines he hears behind him despite his wolf whining right along with them.

Think of it this way guys, Sehun pipes up, attempting to lighten the mood while also making himself feel better about the whole situation. At least we’re that much closer to that scent being one of ours.

At his words, growls of approval are heard, the mood immediately shifting into a better one.

He’s right, Chanyeol hums, a slight grin appearing to form on his lips.

“Oh, for the love of god- stop thinking so loud!” Luhan shouts from the second story window, halfway leaning out with a frown on his face. He’s already had to deal with the events of the night in his own way, the last thing he needs is to be bombarded by the raunchy thoughts of his brothers this early in the morning.

Sorry! Choruses through his mind five times as the wolves all shift and head back into the house for the morning, ready to shower and start the day. They can’t wait to see what training you have in store for them today. They only hope they can maintain their focus.

Even though you put up a sound barrier up last night, they could still smell everything. A few of them actually had to leave the house in the middle of the night and bunk with your friends in the off-site dorms just to be able to calm their wolves down. Both Tao and Jongin had to take some cold showers, which luckily helped to calm them down, but even still, fuck did they ever want to be the ones to make you feel as good as you smelt to them.

Luckily, a few of them have been able to handle themselves better than the others. However, that still does not mean they are unaffected by what has transpired. Either way, each looks forward to the day where they can finally claim you as their own. Well, as much as they can alongside the others. They’ll each make sure to make the time special when it comes. After all, it’s what you deserve.

***

The first few rays of the morning sun dance across your skin, feeling them warm you as you practically glow in the morning light. Keeping your eyes closed, you attempt to fall back into the peaceful void you had been in only moments before, not wanting to get up and start your day just yet. After all, the warmth from your pillow is a little too comfortable, and moving is the last thing you’d like to do at the moment. A fact which your pillow seems to agree with, his arms tightening slightly around your waist in the next moment.

A few minutes pass by with you simply revelling in Jongdae’s embrace, smile on your face as you bury yourself deeper into his side. A blissful sigh falls from your lips.

You can feel his chest rumble with the chuckle he lets out, “morning, sleepyhead.”

A muffled groan is all that greets him in response, only causing him to let out another chuckle. You can feel him bring his one hand up to gently start stroking over your head, making you smile once more in content.

“Did you sleep well?” His voice is low, sleep still clinging to its edges and causing a shiver to run down your spine as he says those words right beside your ear.

You hum, “like a baby.”

This time, it’s his turn to smile, “glad to be of service.”

Shifting your head, you look up at him, noticing the cheeky look on his face. You simply quick a brow in response. “It’s funny though, I never took you to be that kind of a jealous type.”

“I wasn’t jealous,” he responds almost immediately, a pout forming on his lips. You give him a knowing look. “Okay, well, maybe a little bit.”

“Don’t worry, I think it’s endearing since I know you’d never do anything I’m uncomfortable with,” you reassure him. “Besides, how you always know what to do to help me relax still baffles me at times.”

“I’m just that good,” he replies cheekily once more, wiggling his eyebrows suggestively.

“You’re certainly something, wolf boy,” you grin, leaning up to place a gentle kiss on his cheek, “and I wouldn’t trade that for anything.”

His wolf hums contently as he gently rolls the two of you over so he can kiss you properly. You can feel all the love and passion he has for you as he cups your face in his hand, pulling you closer all the while.

After a few moments, he breaks the kiss only to rest his forehead on yours, voice as soft as a whisper against your lips as he says, “I love you.”

“I love you,” you hum back, bringing your own hand up to cup the side of his face, thumb stroking his cheek softly. “Now, if you’ll care to join me, the shower is calling my name.”

“But of course,” a devious smirk pulls at his lips as he rolls off of you, helping you stand from the bed.

The two of you take your time to wash each other off, basking in each other’s presence for the time being. It’s as if the two of you are alone again, bathing beneath a waterfall just like when you were travelling around. Needless to say, this is the most relaxed you’ve felt in a long time, your worries slipping from your mind momentarily.

Once done, the two of you continue to take your time to dry off and get ready for the day. Just as you’re about to open the door to head downstairs, you’re stopped by Jongdae wrapping his arms around your waist from behind. Burying his face into the side of your neck, he inhales deeply, still loving how he can smell his scent all over you.

“What are you doing?” You chuckle as his hair tickles your skin.

“Nothing,” he grins, placing a soft kiss on top of his mark on your neck before backing off. You simply hum in amusement as he steps around you, only to open the door for you. “After you, my lady.”

“Why, thank you, kind sir,” you grin right back, doing a small fake curtsey as you both laugh. This is really what you both needed, and now there’s an air of ease surrounding the both of you. The tension has albeit disappeared.

That is, until you walk into the kitchen.

“So, the two of you have finally decided to come out of your room, huh?” Irene teases, a knowing look on her face as she munches on an apple.

“From how they seemed yesterday evening I definitely thought they’d be gone half the day,” Lisa smirks, sharing a giggle with the other girls. “Perhaps more.”

“Nah, it’s probably just cause (Y/n)’s getting old,” Yeri jokes, devilish grin on her lips, “can’t go for as long as she used to.”

The girls all share another laugh, only growing louder at your wide eyed look of disbelief you send them. Turning towards Jongdae only reveals him to be stifling his own laughter, causing you to chuckle and shake your head slightly in amusement.

“Yeah, yeah,” you roll your eyes, moving over to the fridge to pour yourself something to drink, noting how quiet Kyungsoo, Yixing and Junmyeon have been this whole time.

Just then, the back door opens, and in walks Taemin, Key, Namjoon, Mark and Jackson.

“Woah, you guys weren’t kidding,” Taemin says, walking in and glancing around the room. “It is tense this morning.”

Namjoon and Mark share a look.

“At least they’ve cleaned up nicely,” Jackson observes, grabbing a banana and sitting beside Jennie at the table.

���Well, as much as they can,” Jennie mumbles, causing a few smirks to appear on some of their faces.

“Can you all stop talking about us like we’re not in the room with you?” You ask, a bit exasperatedly, Jongdae not helping one bit as you see him trying, and failing, to suppress the smirk that wants to form on his lips. You know he’s been enjoying this the whole time, subtly letting the others know that you’re his first, and you always will be.

“Kind of hard to ignore you guys with the stench clinging onto you,” Key sasses back, eyebrow quirked in amusement.

At his words, Junmyeon starts choking on the water he’d been drinking as you turn to look at your friends, some of which cannot stifle their laughter. A few of the boys share a look with Jongdae as Jin, Bambam, Jaehwan, Hakyeon and Minho all enter the main house. Minho says nothing as he walks by Jongdae, opting to just smirk at the male and clap him on the back, eyebrows wiggling suggestively as he passes.

“Oh my god,” Chaeyoung half rolls her eyes, shaking her head slightly.

Luckily, a few minutes of silence pass by as everyone grabs something to eat, some moving to the back porch seeing as it’s another beautiful day outside. By now, your other mates have also come downstairs to join you, and though things are a little tense at first, everyone seems to have calmed down by the time you’ve finished eating.

“So, what’s on the agenda for today?” Luhan asks, managing to divert the attention to you once more.

“I was thinking we could do some more combat training, but focus on teamwork today,” you answer, glad for the change in subject material. “You all still need to learn how to work together with your new powers, and how to work off of one another.”

“Sounds good to me,” Dylan grins, Minseok, Tao, Yixing and Jongin nodding their agreement. You can tell that some of them are still a bit tense from everything that has transpired over the past twelve hours, so you’re hoping the training will help to relieve that tension.

“Once everyone’s finished eating, we’ll start for the day,” you say, seeing them nod in response.

However, what you don’t expect is a few voices in your head speaking at once.

Woah, hold on there, one at a time, you joke, turning to Chanyeol to see what he has to say first.

Well, actually, Minho said he would help me train with my fire today, he replies, almost sheepishly.

That’s great! What a wonderful idea, you’ll learn lots, you smile, to which he mirrors. You turn to the next one.

Kyungsoo and I were actually going to train with Wendy and Irene since they know how to manipulate nature with their magic, Baekhyun tells you.

Good idea, they’re very skilled when it comes to that, you reply to both of them, Kyungsoo looking at Baekhyun briefly in question before being told of what Baekhyun had told you.

Finally, you turn to the last man whose voice sounded in your head.

I was planning to train with some of the hybrids to help control my strength better, Junmyeon informs you.

You nod, understanding on your features, that’ll be good for you as they are stronger than regular supernatural beings.

After all of that is cleared, you wave goodbye to each group as they all head off to a different area in order to train. Turning around to face the rest of them that stayed, you smirk. Today’s training is going to be a little different that what they’ve experienced so far. This time, you’re not going to give them prep time, or at least, you’ll try not to.

“Okay, show me what you’ve got,” you tell them, standing in the middle of the backyard and just waiting for one of them to make a move. You’ve already agreed with Jongdae and the rest of your friends that have stayed back to let your mates figure things out first before they get involved in the training for today.

“Right now?” Sehun frowns, confusion on his face. “But you haven’t given us any specific instructions.”

“Does this mean we’re starting already?” Tao asks.

You see realization cross Luhan’s, Dylan’s, and Minseok’s features before the three of them are in a fighting stance, preparing to run at you.

“Well, she did say we’re doing group training today, did she not?” Minseok says, hearing sounds of agreement come from his brothers.

“That’s right,” Yixing nods, the rest of them mirroring the first three’s stances as they slowly move to surround you.

Good, you praise already. Formation is key, it can make or break your first attack.

Are you ready? Dylan asks, only causing your smirk to deepen.

“I’ve been ready,” you reply, rolling your neck slowly. “Now, show me what you’ve got.”

In an instant, four of them rush at you, with you easily fending them off. They take their time assessing the situation and responding accordingly, a fact which you know is from years of experience. They have good coordination, even with pack members missing, and you commend them for that. However, once the powers are adding in, especially in their wolf forms, things get a little more complicated.

After each round, you give them pointers on how to improve, better maintain and use their powers during combat, especially together. They each take your words to heart, immediately implementing the advice you give them. You could not be more proud of their progress in the first day alone.

About a week passes by with the training continuing like this. Each day, different mates practice with different friends of yours to improve their skills. You’re happy with the way things are progressing, and by the end of the second week, you actually have to put in quite a bit more effort against all twelve of them when they come at you as a pack. You’re a little surprised at how quickly they’re learning to control their powers in their wolf forms especially, but you could not be prouder. A fact which you never fail to tell them, or praise them for.

During these past two weeks, you’ve also been coming up with strategies to combat Minwoo and Miranda when they reappear, going over formations and battle tactics. You’ve prepared for if they come alone again, as well as if they bring back up with them. You’ve just finished agreeing that some people should stay back at the house as a last resort in case things go bad when you sense two familiar presences approaching from the woods.

“They’re back,” you singsong, just as some heads snap up and to the side at the sounds coming from the woods in order to see who’s approaching.

Not even a minute later, both Mal and Vasco can be seen stepping out of the woods.

A smile is on your face as you walk down to greet them, wrapping them both in a hug and letting them know you’re glad they returned safely.

“Yeah, but we didn’t manage to get in touch with three of the major packs you told us to,” Mal grumbles, looking slightly worried. “We think he might have got to them first, as we looked everywhere and couldn’t find them.”

“We’ll deal with it when the time comes,” you sigh, noticing how Jongdae, Dylan, Junmyeon and Minseok have all joined you while the other eight stand a little ways away. “More have already come than what I was expecting, so I can’t thank you two enough for all that you’ve done.”

“Of course!” Mal responds immediately.

“It’s the least we could do,” Vasco adds, and you can hear Jongdae hum his agreement, along with your other mates.

“So, how’s training been?” Mal asks, and you immediately link your arm with hers, leading her back up to the house as you run through everything that’s transpired since she’s been gone. She remains silent and attentive the whole time you tell her, only chiming in when necessary. By the time you’re done, you’ve managed to move inside to sit on the couch, about an hour and a half having passed. “Wow, sounds like we missed quite a bit.”

You chuckle along with her, “eh, we both know the true party is with you.”

“That’s true,” she nods in agreement, a grin pulling on her lips. “Hey, remember that one time when you-“

She immediately freezes, and you can already tell what’s about to happen. Your eyes go wide as you call for Vasco, gently helping Mal lay down on the couch. Not even a moment later, Vasco is at Mal’s side, gripping her hand in his as her eyes start to glow faintly.

“What is it, what’s going on?” Luhan asks, having walked into the room when you called for Vasco, along with Minseok, Chanyeol, Baekhyun, Jongin, Jongdae, and Dylan. The others arrive shortly after, a few of your friends with them too.

“She’s getting a vision,” you reply calmly.

“Is that a good or bad thing?” Tao asks.

“We’ll see,” you breathe out slowly, hands clasped behind your back as you stand beside the couch in order to give Mal and Vasco some space.

A few minutes pass by, the silence so thick that you could hear a pin drop. Luckily, Mal’s vision doesn’t last too much longer, and you can already see the signs of her coming back to reality. This one is nowhere near as violent or as intense as you know some of them can be, and for that, you breathe a short sigh of relief. It couldn’t have been too bad now, can it?

You notice Irene, Seulgi, Wendy, Joy and Yeri standing off to the side, whispering frantically to each other as Mal starts to regain consciousness. They’re speaking in their old tongue, of which you haven’t heard in years. You can tell some of the boys are confused by this, as you don’t think they’ve heard that language before.

Irene begins to make her way over to you, followed by the four others of her coven just as Mal’s consciousness fully returns to her. At the same time Mal grabs your left wrist, Irene grabs your right. Together, they speak at once.

“We have two weeks until they make their final move.”
